When I watched this trailer for Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate, which Capcom is bringing both to Wii U and 3DS this March, I had two main takeaways:

1) Holy crap, this is gorgeous! Monster Hunter has never really become the explosive force here in America that it is in Japan, but maybe a game that looks this good will build up some steam in the U.S.

2) You can share saves between Wii U and 3DS! Wait, what? This is the first time we've seen some sort of Wii U-3DS connectivity deal, and the fact that a third-party game like Monster Hunter supports it is a very good sign. Very cool stuff.
